Munich - Mae West and HVB Tower

No, these are not the skeletonized remains of some cooling tower - this is actually a piece of art, named "Mae West", after the actress.

 

The 52 m tall sculpture designed by Rita McBride was built from Oct. 2010 to Jan. 2011, the material is CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced polymer).

 

In the right background is the 113.7 m tall HVB Tower, one of the better looking modern buildings in Munich, completed already in 1981.
